Puddle Lights/Projector Lights

I just purchased a 2024 MB GLB 250. I would like to install puddle lights/ projector lights. The lights when you open the front driver and passenger doors it will reflect the MB logo and "Mercedes Benz" on the ground. Where is the best place I can purchase it at an economical price (not the dealer) and it is easy to install myself? Does anyone have a recommendation for a certain retailer? Is there a part number that I need to order this? I looked on Amazon but most of them sellers did not have any lights for the GLB 250. Thank you.

The part number is A1778200201/A2479063303.
You could try asking your dealer.
Or sourcing it from ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/175903787478

I also ended up trying a cheap (China) one from Amazon:
Amazon Amazon
One thing I wanted to point out in case you do decide to go for the Amazon part - the projector is significantly brighter than the MB part and looks pretty cool/ nice. Unfortunately, it likely does not project vertically and so the logo will appear slightly distorted/ stretched, i.e one end of the circle will appear to be ever so slightly thicker than the other end. You can also observe this in the pictures posted by users. So one can figure out its a rip-off if you were to look closely. May not be an issue for most but started bothering me after a while (maybe coz I knew). Switched to original MB part after using it for a couple of months.

Here is a pic of the original MB part:


And here is how the cheap ripoff from Amazon projects:

Also, the original part only projects the Star and not the Mercedes Benz lettering.

Be aware that there is a possibility that one or both new MB OEM logo lights might start blinking after install. That will happen if coding is missing from door control module.
In that case you will need a trip to a dealer to program that in.

Thank you! What is the best tool I can use to remove the original door lights on the vehicle so that I don't break the lights?

Use plastic pry tool.

​​​​​​Just a sample of one below. There used to be a German language video on YouTube on how to install a logo light on Mercedes.
One side has wire plug. I broke one of the clips on existing lights while pulling out.
